re: What movie did the "strong female" trope right?
Posted by Zaqwert on 7/17/23 at 5:52 pm to BuckyCheese
The best Sarah parts are those that show she's well rounded.
There's the scene where she's describing her dreams to the doctor and sobbing.
The scenes where she tries to kill the scientist and loses her nerve.
She's a woman made hard by hard circumstances but there's still a real person, a real woman underneath that comes out sometimes.
Modern "strong women" roles are essential cartoon characters. They aren't written to be interesting or realistic or relatable, they are written solely to push some warped social agenda.

A confluence of factors gutted Disney in very short order.
The rapid decline of traditional TV and movie theater going.
Their decision is push homosexuality and feminism in everything, ruined their reputation.
Inflation and loss of buying power has made things like a Disney vacation much less affordable and it's an easy thing to skip to save money.

He's a hypocrite because I get the feeling if he caught somebody messing with his kids he'd be irate.
This isnt a live and let live situation, that ship sailed a long time ago.
They are aggressively targeting and grooming young children, openly. This trans kids stuff is every single bit as destructive and evil as child p0rn.
You mess with someone's kids no laws of man will protect you from what you have coming.

Absolutely.
The vast majority of freak kids are due to bad or negligent parenting.

At the end of the day it really boils down to they just think black people should be allowed to commit crimes without the police hassling them.

It was only done right when it wasn't a trope. The good examples all were legitimate well written characters, organically created.
Ripley and Sarah Conner also come across as real people. They aren't perfect, they occasionally are emotionally weak, they are both very maternal, etc.

A great example of how big corporations are more than willing to put political and social agendas ahead of profits.
Their aggressive pushing of women's sports obviously hurts ratings, it makes people less likely to watch, not more.
How can you effectively run a business when you go out of your way to drive off customers?

The guy worth tens of billions attempting to taunt the guy worth hundreds of billions.
Musks net worth is higher than it's ever been at the moment, even with Twitter not being worth nearly what he paid.

There were 10,000 entrants and maybe 500 of them were "notable" names you would recognize.
The skill gap between the best pros you've heard of and the anonymous ones you haven't is also pretty small to be honest.
As the wsop grew the recognizability of the players was way decreased.

You can't blame the thots, people can and do anything for a buck.
What's truly sad is you have an entire generation of young men so socially retarded this is one of the few ways they can actually interact with a female.
We now have our first full generation of kids who grew up in the social media/smart phone era and it shows.
You got guys who are maybe 16-18 who have never been in a fight, never played sports, never had a girlfriend, never had an actual date, never had a real job, etc.
Their entire life has been video games, porn, and internet crap.

Downvotes are clearly pedos
I think it shows you how powerful media brainwashing is.
Left wingers get their marching orders every day from the corporate media. Their beliefs and priorities are just verbatim regurgitation of the media narrative.
They support Ukraine because the TV man said to.
They were told that being concerned about sexual exploiting children is a right wing hoax so that's now their belief.

Yes it's been painfully obvious that Newsome is prepping for being the candidate. Whether that's the definitive plan A or he's just the emergency backup in case something incapacitates Biden, the writing is on the wall.

The Larry David test says that Pierce Brosnan is clearly a very good guy, probably a saint.
Guy I used to work with married an Irish woman and lived in Ireland for awhile.
Said it was awful. He needed to see a dentist and had to wait like 6+ months to see one. He also didn't get any say in who the dentist was
So yeah, it's "free" (not actually free, paid for with taxes) but there are clearly major downsides.
If you don't pay taxes and have low standards it's a win, for everyone else a big L

Well said. Patriotism barely exists in people under 30. The few patriots left are patriotic for a country that no longer even exists. America is far more of an economic construct at this point than a nation.
re: SAG-AFTRA and Studios failed to negotiate, the strike begins tonight at midnight
Posted by Zaqwert on 7/12/23 at 4:23 pm to TotesMcGotes
It's a math equation. The stars you developed have value. They are like an investment. Throwing that away and starting over has a cost.
However a prolonged strike also has significant cost. So it's a matter of which costs less.

The people who hate whites the most simultaneously get really angry at the idea of no access to them.

I don't understand labor laws but why doesn't Hollywood tell all the actors to go frick themselves and just hire scabs? There are a gazillion desperate wanna be actors who would love to have their shot.
This isn't like NFL players striking, they actually are hard to replace so replacement players don't work.
You could replace every actor in Hollywood tomorrow and within a year or two nobody would notice or care. There are like 0 irreplaceable actors.
